Create an Operation Configuration File

<

|

The operation configuration file is required for menu operation workflows. It specifies the aspects of the custom menu option in the vRealize Automation console such as the display text, which roles have access to the option, and the machine states for which the option is available.

For each state in which the operation should be available, add a state element.

<machineStates>
<state>On</state>
<state>Off</state>
</machineStates>

The value may be any of the possible machine states. For a full list of machine states, see IaaS Configuration for Virtual Platforms, IaaS Configuration for Physical Machines, or IaaS Configuration for Cloud Platforms.

If the element is omitted, the operation is available for all machine states.
